Neronha, who&#8217;s co-leading the case, accused the Trump administration of &#8220;threatening to jeopardize public safety by unlawfully withholding billions in critical funding.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Congress allocated these funds to the states for preparing for and responding to emergencies including counterterrorism and natural disasters, and the executive branch has no legal say in the matter,&#8221; Neronha said in a statement announcing the suit. &#8220;Federal emergency funding cannot and will not be held hostage from states.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>A FEMA spokesperson told CBS News: &#8220;This partisan pushback from New Jersey, California, Illinois, and Rhode Island is nothing new. We fully expected these left-wing politicians to oppose common-sense measures designed to protect election security and safeguard the integrity of American democracy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This year, states must take critical, common-sense steps to protect U.S. elections before receiving their full Homeland Security Grant Program awards,&#8221; FEMA&#8217;s statement continued. &#8220;These new requirements will preserve election integrity.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Along with Rhode Island, the suit was joined by attorneys general from Arizona, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii, Illinois, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Oregon, Vermont, Virginia, Washington, Wisconsin and the District of Columbia, as well as the governors of Kentucky and Pennsylvania.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The states contend the conditions imposed by FEMA and DHS violate the Administrative Procedure Act and the Constitution&#8217;s Spending Clause.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Attorneys General from the states and Washington, D.C.,<strong> <\/strong>are now asking a federal judge in Rhode Island to block the conditions, void them nationwide as applied to the plaintiffs and require the agencies to issue funding documents.\u00a0<\/p>\n<section class=\"content__body--footer\">\n<\/section>\n<p>  <!-- data-recirc-source=\"queryly\"
